Eleven Rack Expression Pedal
Just saw this on my Facebook page and checked it out. Pretty pricey IMO, but definitely a step (no pun intended) in a good direction:

Re: Eleven Rack Expression Pedal
Yeah I've seen this pedal before. I actually think it came out about a year ago or so but was only available direct from Mission. Its actually $10 cheaper if you buy it directly from them http://www.mission-engineering.com/M.../Products.html
Though it 'may' be cheaper from Sweetwater once shipping is figured in. EDIT: Never Mind, I was thinking of the original 11R Mission pedal (EP11) this one is the EP11-S |
Re: Eleven Rack Expression Pedal
I'm curious as to how it works as a switch as well. IIRC, the original EP11 had no switch.

The only thing I can think of is that the switch creates a short in the circuit. I will try an experiment to see if pulling out the expression pedal cable shuts off the wah. It might be specific to the "EP11" option in the 11Rack. Quote:

Re: Eleven Rack Expression Pedal
Alas, the 11R only has one expression pedal input, so there's no port on the 11R to hook that extra 1/4" cable to.
I think you need an external box to covert the toe switch to a MIDI CC. Or maybe someone jumped the gun and 11R mk11 will have two expression ports? :-) I don't even see this switch option on the Mission site. |

It's fairly new, and again "Sweetwater Exclusive" whatever that means. But it is odd that it's not on mission's website. |
Re: Eleven Rack Expression Pedal
Yeah, I'd like to get to the bottom of this soon. I plan on buying a Mission pedal.
Since we're never going to get "expression pedal auto-engage" judging by how long that request has been on IdealStale, this two 1/4" plug seems to be one of the few options unless you buy a controller with built in foot pedals. The 11R guys did an excellent job on the user interface for this box. The only complaint I have is the engaging the Wah. They either need auto-engage, or they need to have at least 2 expression ports. |
Re: Eleven Rack Expression Pedal
I sent an email to both Sweetwater and Mission to get an answer on how this will work.

Re: Eleven Rack Expression Pedal
From Mission:
The Ep-11-S is designed to work with the Eleven Rack, but in conjunction with a midi foot controller such as the Voodoo Lab Ground Control Pro. Simply put, plug both outputs into the GCP, and then Midi into the Eleven Rack. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/GControlPro/ .....meaning Sweetwaters sight is misleading |
